Qiao Muyue's words made everyone wake up, and Qiao Qiangsheng nodded in agreement: "Young girl Yue is right, I think so too, so I didn't go to your old house, where there are either old people or pregnant women and children, but Can't toss..."

Wu Chuanqin nodded, then looked at Qiao Qiangsheng: "Then shall we go to the city?"

Qiao Guilin thought so too.

Qiao Qiangsheng thought it over and said, "I'll tell the superiors first, if there are arrangements over there, let's go and have a look!"

The Qiao family nodded.

"I really hope it's your third uncle. If he comes back, he will definitely bring great development to our village. He is an overseas Chinese..."

Qiao Qiangsheng had some longing.

Qiao Muyue was not optimistic in her heart, she always felt very strange, but she couldn't tell. Except for the third uncle who is now the principal of Xianghe No. [-] Middle School, everyone else in Qiao's family were farmers who planed food from the ground, so it was okay for others to pretend to be It's good, and now the returned overseas Chinese are generally rich, especially this one even alarmed the city leaders, obviously richer, so there is no need to fake it.

Qiao Guilin and Wu Chuanqin sent Qiao Qiangsheng away, and the couple felt a little uneasy. Wu Chuanqin said, "Even if we try to recognize him, we might not be able to recognize him..."

She was very worried about this problem. When the third uncle left home, Qiao Guilin was still ignorant, how could he remember his face, and even if he could remember, it must have been different after decades, so he would be more serious not coming out.

Qiao Guilin frowned, and then said hesitantly, "How about I ask our father?"

Qiao Muyue made a note: "I'd better ask, let's ask side-by-side, lest the master see it!"

The husband and wife nodded, and Wu Chuanqin went to the vegetable garden to pick some freshly grown peppers and some green vegetables, and then the family of three walked towards the old house.

As soon as I arrived at the old house, I heard Huang Lin yelling at Qiao Mulong.

"Every day, this can be wrong, have you said it hundreds of times?"

"Memorize this text and check it at night. If you can't memorize it, your dad will definitely beat you..."

Qiao Muyue expressed sympathy for this little cousin, and she called out to the door: "Third Aunt!"

The cursing voice stopped abruptly, and then Huang Lin came out with a smile on her face, and Qiao Muyue smiled even more happily: "Yue'er is here?"

After seeing Wu Chuanqin and Qiao Guilin, Huang Lin was a little surprised. At this point, the second brother and the second sister-in-law should still be in the bun shop.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, why are you back?"

Qiao Muyue said: "Business is good today, and all the prepared materials are sold out, so I came back early. My mother saw that the peppers in the field were growing well, so she picked some and sent them over. I heard that third aunt, you like spicy food recently. , sour girl, this baby must be a little sister..."

Qiao Muyue immediately diverted the topic away, and what she said made Huang Lin smile.

Qiao Mulong, who walked out of the room, looked at his mother's gratuitous smile, and hated it in his heart. He wished he could turn his head away, and smiled like a second idiot at his second sister.

"Come in and sit down..."

Huang Lin said quickly.

Wu Chuanqin handed the chili pepper to Huang Lin, and said, "No way! Guilin and I went to visit our parents. Business is busy these days, and we haven't seen their old couple for a long time. It happened that the cabbage just came out of the field. Bring it to the old couple to taste..."

Huang Lin nodded: "Then the second brother and the second sister-in-law will go there first, and you don't have to cook at night, just eat here. Guishan said that he will bring back some stewed vegetables at night..."

Wu Chuanqin and Qiao Guilin nodded.

The family of three walked towards the front yard. Qiao Mulong took the opportunity to sneak out and dragged them to the front yard. Huang Lin couldn't scold him, so she could only stare at him. The expression on her face seemed to say: wait and see !
After several people entered the room, Qiao Muyue and Qiao Mulong started to call for people, Wu Chuanqin handed over the cabbage, and then they all began to care about the old man's body.

The old lady Qiao took the opportunity to complain about the old man stealing a drink, and asked Qiao Guilin to persuade him quickly. The old man was so angry that Qiao denied it, and said that the old woman was just making trouble and talking nonsense.

Qiao Guilin took the opportunity to persuade him a few words.

Qiao Muyue saw that the time was almost up, so she asked casually, "Master! Do you still remember the situation of the third grandpa?"

All the people in the room fell silent immediately, the old lady Qiao and Qiao Mulong who didn't know had strange expressions on their faces, Qiao Guilin and Wu Chuanqin looked at the old lady Qiao expectantly.

Qiao Muyue was afraid that her grandfather might be suspicious, so she quickly added another sentence: "I saw that the name of the third grandfather on the genealogy tree sounds very nice, so I suddenly asked out of curiosity..."

Just before she came, she went back to her hut and dug out the family tree to find the names of her grandfather and the three brothers.

The old man Qiao sighed and sat up straight: "Your third grandpa is suffering!"

The old man seemed to be caught in the memory all of a sudden, with a sadness in his whole body, and he continued after a while: "He was very smart when he was young, and he secretly listened to the teacher's lectures, and he learned better than those who can go to school. There is no way for him to go to school because of poverty, and your grandma gave birth to two boys in a row, that is, your uncle and your father... There are two more people in the family to eat, and I can only do the work in the field with him..."

"He really saved everything delicious for your dad and your uncle. Once your uncle went to tease someone's cow and was chased away by the cow. In the end it was your third grandfather who rescued your uncle. His arms were covered with horns. There were several wounds, and the bones were visible..."

"I had a fever for three or four days, and my family had no money to go to a doctor. I almost went there, but fortunately I survived..."

It is said that the old man’s tears flowed down here, and the old lady Qiao next to her was also tearful. She was also grateful to this little uncle for the rest of her life. If it weren’t for him and the old man’s support, she and the three sons would survive in the end. .

Qiao Muyue resolutely noticed that Grandpa said that Third Grandpa's arm was broken by the bull's horn, and she asked cautiously, "Master! How many wounds are there on Third Grandpa's arm?"

Old man Qiao thought for a while: "There seem to be four or five!"

The old lady Qiao on the side immediately corrected: "There are five! Three are big, two are small, the biggest one is the most seriously injured, and has been raised for a long time..."

Qiao Muyue looked at her parents, obviously this information is very important, whether the other party is the third grandpa depends on whether there is this scar.

"Is it on the left hand or the right hand?"

Qiao Muyue made sure.

"The left hand..." This time, before the old man could speak, Mrs. Qiao said it first. She remembered these clearly, and the older she was, the more clearly she remembered.

The clue is more clear, that is, there are five wounds on the left arm, two big and three small...

"Back then your grandma was pregnant, and your third grandfather went out to work to earn money. This time..."

Old man Qiao felt uncomfortable when he said this.
